Tweak 4. Is it possible to build mouse-over triggers on the node? As an example, mousing over a radio and getting tuning noise for 10 seconds after the mouse rolled over it...or mousing over candles on a shelf lights them for a few seconds and then they go out. Rolling over A kitchen utensil like an old fashioned blender, or an old fan that when scrolled over activates the blender making a sound and animation within its container space, or within the circular mask of the fan the blades spin and the sound of it starting up and running then shutting down as it stops after 10 seconds or so, or until I scroll over it again deactivating it?

Hovering over a light display on an old steam engine panel turns on the lights, with a timer, turns on the steam engine, with a timer sends puffs of smoke into the air within a masked space? so one trigger sets off several others to create a dynamic interaction?

Thank you again.

I'm looking at this as a timer sequence across a landscape, button to activate machine nearest to viewer, when depressed a small animation goes off just about, then 5 seconds later as a reaction, another animation goes off further off in the frame.

Is this something that can be built or is this too complex a sequence to link together?

Hi,
If you use 3D distorted hotspots then you should be able to use a timer, the timer would have the action activate show element xxx, deactivate hide element xxx.
The timer would have time set to 0.
Then you can have mouse over set value, 5 seconds, target timer.
